Try the Dems owned congress from Jan 87 to Jan 95. "Yes, Sir, President Reagan, President Bush." President Reagan, pres Bush what? Put it together. While you're at it, answer my point: Try the Dems owned congress from Jan 87 to Jan 95. As much as I'm partisan, I'm not totally partisan. GHWB and Clinton were virtually the same president, they cut spending and increased taxes. Reagan and GWB were the same pres; cut taxes and pump spending, pump the debt. So just because Reagan and GHWB were from the same party, GHWB was not a Reagan, he didn't think debt was cool, he didn't puss out of the war, and disn't spend most of his term in diapers. The Dems owned congress from Jan 87 to Jan 95, when the tax increases were done. Virtually all of these taxes stayed in place thru the Clinton years and the debt virtually leveled off and deficit turned to a huge surplus. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ron 10 #33 November 4, 2009 Funny, not everyone agrees with you: QuotePoll: Florida independent voters moving to right A recent poll has shown that independent voters, who seemed to favor Democrats last year, are now siding more with Republicans. Independent voters are more likely to side with Republicans than with Democrats on issues facing Floridians, according to a poll conducted for The Miami Herald and St. Petersburg Times. Whether it's opposing a so-called ``public option'' for government-run health insurance, supporting oil drilling or a general feeling that the nation is on the wrong track, independents are proving a key ally for conservatives. The more conservative sentiment is a reversal from a year ago, when Herald/Times polls showed that independents leaned more Democratic. Chief reasons for the public-opinion turnaround, according to poll respondents and pollsters: the rough economy and President Barack Obama's difficulty in quickly living up to his campaign slogan, hope and change. ``The Obama administration made a lot of promises that it can't execute on right now,'' said Carlton Hughes, a 31-year-old independent voter and poll respondent from Punta Gorda. ``With the economy the way it is, we're shelling out a lot of money on a federal basis on programs that we're not sure will work. Who has been stimulated by this stimulus bill?'' Overall, Democrats comprise 42 percent of the 11.2 million registered voters in Florida, Republicans comprise 36 percent and those with no party affiliation account for 19 percent of the electorate. And as well all know independents are really the ones that elect people. Quote Independents gave Obama's job performance a lukewarm review: About 41 percent said he was doing an excellent or good job while 57 percent said the president was doing a fair-to-poor job. Republicans were much more negative about the president. Democrats generally gave Obama positive marks. But last year, in Herald/Times polls taken in October and September, independents were more likely to side with Democrats in how they perceived the direction of the state or the job performance of President Bush."No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." -- Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Jefferson Papers, 334 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
